Repainted five years ago. All of the rubber:body. oors. onnet were replaced new; there is no rust; there are no dents in the body - after thirty-three years. I should know the car.

Always garaged

Chrome was redone - everywhere. during a near full cosmetic restoration when first purchased

Still has great acceleration

Chrome exhaust and tailpipe

Wood steering wheel

Updated CD player w/five speakers

What's wrong: The "spring latch" that holds up the trunk was not there when bought - simply hold it open or prop it up; a windshield washer bracket in the engine bay was missing - it was only cosmetic (double sided tape on the bottom has held it fine; emergency brake needs adjustment again.

The "book value" NADA. Haggerty. elly BB. lassiccars. utotraderclassics. ollector CarMarket -all websites. lace its value in this grade of "excellent condition". from $48. 00 to higher. ((We all get that book value. and auction sales . can be different . just like stocks. yet very few of us sell either much beneath book value. ) XKE's have approximately doubled in value every ten years. In effect you are driving a "bank account" destined to only increase in value over time similar to collectible art. sports memorabilia etc. )
